Evaluation of carcinogenicity and non-carcinogenicity of heavy metals in the dominant muscle of Bahmanshir River

The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of carcinogenesis and non-carcinogenicity of heavy metals of mercury, cadmium and lead in the muscle of Liza abu, Acanthopagrus latus and Pennahia anea in the winter from Bahmanshir River. 90 specimens of pseudo-sharked, coarse, dark-skinned, and yellow-white-skinned specimens were prepared completely randomly from 5 stations studied by river snail runners by native fishermen. The heavy metals were studied by atomic absorption and graphite furnace systems with the aid of Perkin Elmer 4100. In order to complete the information in the section on human health risks, the questionnaire was completed randomly. The minimum and maximum weight of men and women were 54 and 107 kg and weight was 73.80±13.803. The concentrations of mercury, lead, cadmium in the muscle of, Acanthopagrus latus was higher than more Liza abu and Pennahia anea (P<0.05). The pattern of heavy metals accumulation in the three species of muscle, the Liza abu, Acanthopagrus latus and Pennahia anea were lead> cadmium> mercury. In three species of fish, it can be said that all three species were carcinogenic to lead, but only the species of shank was outside the standard standard for mercury. Regarding cadmium, it can be said that all three species are in the range and are not a problem for human consumption for carcinogenesis.
